Since 1976 the cableways are build with a 10mm running cable. Enormous operating experience were made during this time. The technical demands of the water-skiers, wakeboarders and the cableway owners had increased continuously and had been realized with constantly development work. Wakeboarding is making a huge progress besides water-skiing.

The technical development has changed the drive concept from the old belt drive to the state of art frequency regulated, computer steering drive with newest touch screen displays with highest operating convenience.This steering eases the work of the operator, takes over a lot of working steps and offers the operator much more time to take care of his clients. Additionally the security level rises also.
